Product Description

This Kenmore 7.0 cu. ft. electric dryer 6210

takes the guesswork out of your drying cycle. The convenient Auto Dry control uses an internal thermostat to monitor heat levels and will automatically adjust to deliver safer, gentler temperatures for better fabric care. You can also select timed cycles in 10-minute increments for extended tumbling on blankets and comforters or quick cycles for hot towels. The Wrinkle Guard® feature will help prevent wrinkles from setting in by tumbling clothes periodically for an extended period of time after high heat cycles are over.

Auto dry cycles use an integrated thermostat to control temperatures and sense when fabrics are dry to help eliminate heat damage and take the guesswork out of drying.

Medium range capacity gives this dryer the power of some bigger machines, allowing it to deliver features that fluff, finish and dry your fabrics to perfection.

An integrated side-swing reversible dryer door helps you customize your laundry room by positioning the door to open closest to the washer for faster loading and more convenience.

It's a wonderful dryer

I dry a full load of mixed wash (towels and clothing) in 20 minutes. The wrinkle guard and the cool down features minimize wrinkles. At this price point it's a wonderful dryer.

Weak in drying

Does not dry completely on regular dry have to move it to more dry. Also means more time drying and more money. disappointed in product.

First delivery didn't work, second one didn't either, but fortunately the repair technician who came for the first delivery ordered a part and that part arrived in time for the second one to be repaired (same issue). (FYI-Delivery people wouldn't take back even though it didn't work.) Just had to wait almost a week for another technician to put it in. Took almost a month to have a working dryer. The dryer - it is a basic dryer, Now that it is repaired, it gets hot and will automatically turn off when cycle is complete so -okay. I have no complaints with the sales team and customer service people who tried to help along the way, but I'm not impressed with the product. They should have these fixed before they hit the floor or at least have technicians and parts ready to fix them right away. To make customers wait 5+ days for a tech and another 4-10 days for a part was inexcusable. Kenmore-what has happened to you?

I had to replace my broken dryer, but I kept my old washer. I bought this dryer and quickly found out it did not dry my clothes - even on the highest heat for the longest setting. I heard it might be because I had an old washer and it did not spin as fast as the newer washers. In any case, I suspected this dryer was underpowered (for heat) or that it was a bad design (both the ingress for heat and the egress for exhaust are on the back of the drum -- meaning the heat output is not pulled through the clothes to the front like other dryers. I ended up trading in this dryer for a different brand/model. Sears was great. They took care of me and made sure I got the new dryer, took back the Kenmore, and I just paid the difference. My new dryer can dry in one cycle on medium heat while I still use my old washer.

Got this a few days ago and I am very pleased. The auto setting is more than enough and dries even my queen sized quilt quickly. Hooks up easily with basic tools. This is your basic modern plain jane dryer and it works perfect for our small family. No doubt it will be part of our home for years to come.

All our clothes dry on auto normal. Blankets on heavy. When I use it everything drys but when my husband uses it we end up redrying and redrying... i think he needs to read the directions. I am very pleased I just wish he would stop using it. lol. Super happy!!! ************* and installation, what a deal :D

I gave this a one simply because of the door. We have not even be able to use the dryer yet. When I purchased this, one of the options I looked for was a reversible door. It states it is reversible and all of the hardware DOES interchange. However, we had to drill 2 more holes in the dryer to attach the hinges to the other side. That was really not the problem though. The problem is the handle is not interchangeable. It can only be used on one side of the door and are unable to open the dryer after reversing the door.

This dryer lasted only 8 years. Half way through its life the motor and starter button had to be replaced. Last week the motor went out again. It is only me and my wife so I know it's not from over use. Would not purchase another Kenmore. Went with Whirlpool this time.
